Automatic Early Exchange – Non-Viability Trigger Event
Non-Viability Trigger
Event
A Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs when APRA notifies CBA in writing that it believes:
Exchange of all or some PERLS VIII (or the taking of an action in relation to other capital instruments of the
CBA Group), is necessary because, without it, CBA would become non-viable; or
a public sector injection of capital, or equivalent support, is necessary because, without it, CBA would
become non-viable

Examples of
situations in which a
Non-Viability Trigger
Event may occur
Whether a Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs is at the discretion of APRA - there are currently no precedents
The circumstances in which APRA may exercise its discretion are not limited to when APRA may have a concern
about a bank's capital levels but may also include when APRA has a concern about a bank's funding and liquidity
levels

Maximum Exchange
Number
If a Non-Viability Trigger Event occurs, CBA must immediately Exchange such number of PERLS VIII (or a
percentage of the Face Value of each PERLS VIII) as specified by APRA or necessary to satisfy APRA that CBA will
no longer be non-viable
On Exchange, Holders receive a variable number of Ordinary Shares (subject to the Maximum Exchange Number)
with the benefit of a 1% discount
The Mandatory Exchange Conditions do not apply and the Terms provide that Exchange occurs automatically
without the need for any further act or step by CBA and that CBA will recognise Holders as having been issued
Ordinary Shares
Calculated according to the formula: (Face Value) / (Relevant Percentage x Issue Date VWAP)
The Relevant Percentage is 20% if Exchange is occurring as a result of a Non-Viability Trigger Event
